2. Mary Kay Tinted Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum SPF 20, $18. Tinted moisturizer has always been a long time favorite of mine, but this product really shines in the summertime. Easy to apply and blend, this lightweight face product will fool yourself – and others – into thinking that you’re not wearing any face make up at all. Fragrance free, oil free, and non-comedogenic stats make it suitable for all skin types.

4. Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration After Sun Lotion, $7. Soothing and moisturizing, this product is a newfound love of mine. A slightly tropical scented moisturizer, intertwined with ribbons of Aloe Vera, calms and protects the skin. Perfect for after the pool, beach, or shower.

5. Mary Kay Lash Love Waterproof Mascara, $15. A uniquely sculpted brush separates and lifts lashes for a fresh, wide-eyed summer look. Ophthalmologist tested, and fragrance free, this mascara allows you to be spontaneous and jump into the pool randomly – even with a full face on.

6. CoverGirl Lipslicks Smoochie in Sweet Tweet, $6. This hybrid lip balm/ lipstick not only moisturizers surprisingly well, but also has beautiful color pay-off, and the most delectable scents. Perfect to throw into your summer purse or pool bag. ( Amazon has a $1.50 off coupon which you clip on the product page. Discount is applied at checkout. )

7. Laura Mercier Shimmer Bloc in Peach Mosaic, $40. Laura Mercier has been one of my go-to beauty brands for as long as I can remember. Perfect for light-skinned girls such as myself, Laura has created a line with true toned products, that match any and all skin types. The shimmer bloc is the perfect “do it all” summer must-have. Use it as a bronzer, blush, or even eyeshadow. A bit pricey, this will serve you well for years to come. ( Beauty Tip: Before putting away after the summer, swab with some alcohol to kill any bacteria. Let dry, then store. Do the same when taking out again for usage. )

8. Yes To Cucumbers Natural Sunscreen Stick, SPF 30, $9. I don’t know about you, but I tend to sunburnt in the odd places. My eyebrows, ears, and lips seem to just be irresistible to those dangerous rays. This sunscreen stick is all-natural, which appeals to the health freak in me, and is the perfect for size for taking just about anywhere. Buh-bye odd sunburns!

9. Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes, 25 wipes for $9. Go. Buy. These. Right. Now. Seriously, these make up removing wipes will change your life, and your skin’s life for that matter. These wipes just get it done, easily, and in a non-irritating manner. Make up really soaks into my skin, so in order to go to sleep with clean skin, I generally need to use multiple make up remover wipes, as well as a cleanser and toner. With these babies, I can hop into my cozy bed that much sooner. The brand has exfoliating and oily skin options as well, so although I haven’t tried them, I’d assumed they’re awesome too.
